Glycemic index, glycemic load and cancer risk
Dietary glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) have been related to the risk of selected cancers, but the issue remains open.Mailed questionnaires were completed between 1994 and 1997 in eight Canadian provinces for incident, histologically confirmed cases of the stomach (n=1182), colon (n=1727), rectum (n=1447), liver (n=309), pancreas (n=628 ...

Critical illness alters this homeostasis through various exaggerated autonomic and cytokine responses. The mechanisms that are impaired include glucose cellular transport and peripheral and hepatic insulin uptake ...

Glycemic index, glycemic load and thyroid cancer risk
Risk of thyroid cancer has already been related to refined cereals and starch food, but the association has not been studied in terms of glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL).We analyzed data from a case-control study conducted in Italy from 1986 to 1992 and including 399 histologically confirmed and incident cases of thyroid cancer and 616 ...
